Remo, this is some Code that Dick sent me that should work for your surface !<?xml version="1.0"?>========================================If all your pads are the same altitude, you can add morerunways and runwaystarts to the code. That way you don't addunnecessary airport entries to the airport menu and the map. The Airport-alt controls the hardened altitude... which is ashame because if each runway had it's own hardened altitudewe could have dozens of pads, with dozens of altitudes, withone Airport ID.A tower view can also be added to the Airport code.Dick********************************************************rgds Jeff

Sorry Remo, i dont use Gmax but the model should be just that, a model ! the hard surface is something else but i recall something mentioned by i think, Rhumbaflappy about Pads made with the new SDK for MDL files that allows you to attach the hard surface to to Gmax model to incorporate it into one subject. I use FSDS for my models and then place the XML hard surface at the same location.Ill email you a link to some tutorials that may help you out for the XML code tho.rgds Jeff
